My grandfather is amazing.

[Tømpson]

He has survived 4 open heart surgeries a jugular vein blockage and now an aneurysm at his brain stem.
I don't know how he does it but he is almost perfectly healthy at 80 years of age.

My grandmother is in her early 70s and hasn't had any life threatening conditions yet.

Great grandparents lived to 98 or so, died a few years ago :c

[Katadeus]

My great aunt was still working at age 97 3 months before she died. She was an organist and a schoolteacher and she could also still drive.

[EazyE]

my great great grandmother died at 96. She used to tell me about WWII stuff, she could remember anything. I remember her quoting word for word (missing only 2 words) what Roosevelt said when Pearl Harbor was bombed.

healthier on the outside, maybe. open him up and his lungs would be black.

Well, I mean that he hasn't gotten any serious threats (so far). A couple weeks ago, one of his younger brothers got a heart attack, kidney failure, and something else serious, and my dad hasn't gotten stuff like that yet.

My Uncle has survived many things.

Explosives - He took major scaring to his legs and some of his torso. But he was fine.
Bullets - He has been shot in the leg twice.
Many Navy based injuries.

And to top it off he survived the Widow Maker heart attack. Only 5% of the people who have a Widow maker survive from its deadly affects.
